JAKARTA - Samsung fans who have been waiting for the Galaxy Z TriFold to arrive must hold their expectations in terms of durability. This is because this three-fold mobile phone is proven to be not tough.
In fact, when compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 that was released a few months ago, the two-foldable device is still much stronger in the durability test conducted by JerryRigEverything. This shows that Samsung's three-foldable phone is not perfect.
In the video uploaded to the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel, this phone underwent a series of scratch, fire, and bending tests. Although it had given hope at the beginning of the test, the device finally gave up when faced with a heavy physical challenge.
Dust and sand resistance is the first serious problem found in the test. Dirt particles that enter the gap of the device cause a worrying rattling and rubbing sound on the hinge part.
Unlike the very sturdy Galaxy Z Fold 7, the TriFold feels fragile when faced with pressure. This three-fold phone is also easy to break when tested by bending it in the opposite direction from its natural fold.
Just with a little pressure in the wrong direction, the pixels on the screen instantly ripped and turned dark. The bottom of the right hinge also broke due to the force of the pressure given during the test.
Previously, Samsung claimed that this device can last up to 200,000 folds in normal use. However, this claim does not seem to apply if the phone receives pressure from unexpected external directions.
The Galaxy Z TriFold is scheduled to be officially released in early 2026. If you are looking for a sophisticated folding device with the best durability, this latest device from Samsung is not the answer.
